How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Have you handled the Addict AD-01? I’m curious about how they compare. I went with the Addict as it was a bit cheaper and I had some doubts about the FCL pattern.
I haven't. I saw some nice used ones but the sleeves are all longer than I would prefer.

Snagged this Schott 184SM for under $100 USD, seemed like a good deal. Sadly, no liner or collar but I don't really care at this price. Old mouton/pile can be nasty anyway.

Anyone know if this is a "good" 184SM? I was reading this thread: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/thr...-schott-184sm-and-the-assorted-others.108620/ but couldn't determine anything about my jacket based on the discussion. Screenshot_20240609_122454_eBay.jpg

Interesting, maybe they were custom, I believe sleeve length is the only custom option they allow year-round, even for custom jacket length they only take orders once a year on some specific event.

Mine is standard size and sleeves are on the shorter size, and I’m average height and don’t have particularly long arms.

the ones I see are 63.5cm sleeves, and I tend to need 58-60.

I bought a 184 last year that was new old stock from 1995. Had the collar and zip out liner as well with tags.. Beautiful naked cowhide. As nice as mine is, the Schott 174 I had before was really my grail leather but sadly was too short in the body. Not sure if that answers your question but the ones I have seen are good ones.
